I hope now that cameras are cheap and common that they will start adding them to busses to cover those blind spots. Not a perfect solution, but better than nothing.
It’s been a few years since I was doing that, so I didn’t get to drive them, but newer school busses my company was in the process of aquiring before I left did have blind spot camera systems.
Yeah; but you also need a special license to operate a bus. You also still have much more visibility over the hood in a bus.

Interesting, I did not know that.
